Unexpected Underdogs Poised to Shake Up College Football Playoff First Round: Who Will Defy the Odds?
One other dynamic to watch: SMU has covered tight ends well this year. Penn State’s offense revolves around Mackey Award winner Tyler Warren, who has periodically taken over games and saved the PSU offense. SMU hasn’t given up more than 91 yards to tight ends in a game this season and has kept most of its opponents at that position under 50 yards.
I don’t think SMU can move the ball efficiently at Beaver Stadium, but I do think the Mustangs can muck things up a little bit for Drew Allar and company. The winner will move on to face Heisman runner-up Ashton Jeanty and third-seeded Boise State in the quarterfinals.
